Practice
I am a Brazilian photographer and designer based in Milan. I photograph people and gestures, and what passes between colour, light and space.
The same attention runs through design, film and technology: what is shown, what is held back, what the frame decides.
I began as an interactive designer in 2004, then moved into art direction and creative direction. In 2009 I co-founded Doubleleft, an interactive studio I led until 2015. I later co-founded Paratii, a decentralised video platform for creators who wanted to distribute their work and keep control of the revenue. With the Paratii team I co-produced Around the Block, a documentary series about the people building the decentralised web.
I am Chief Design Officer at CloudWalk, leading design, brand and communications.
